UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY V. EDINGTON, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO SEFTON MANUFACTURING CORPORATION, OF MILLBROOK, NEW YORK, A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
PAPER BOX.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY V. EDINGTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of' Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Paper Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to paper boxes designed to be used as fillers or containers which are adapted to each contain a group of a small number of incandescent lamps for convenient storage and sale, and adapted to be packed for shipment in a larger box of proper size and construction to receive a given number of similar fillers. Such larger and outer box or package may be made of the material commercially known as corrugated paper board, or of other suitable material, and preferably is constructed to afford a cushioned receptacle for the fillers.
or containers to which my present invention exclusively relates. The object of my invention is to provide a container of the general character described, which may be conveniently made of a tough thin cardboard and which comprises walls and partitions so spaced and arranged as to suspend the lamps out of contact with each other and with the outer walls of the box, in order to provide the most eflicient protection against breakage by shocks, to which the container may be accidentally subjected, during shipment, or in any manner. My invention consists in the particular construction and arrangement of the parts of the container by which I attain the objects in view, the essential elements of the invention being more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
Figure 1 is a plan view of the blank from which my improved filler or container is constructed, full lines representing cuts through the material and dotted lines indicating folding line; Fig. 2 is a top plan view, the position of lamps in the package being indicated in dotted lines; Fig. 3 is a central cross section of the box, as in indicated by the section line 33 in Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is a plan view of a blank from which is constructed a box embodying amodified Specificationof Letters Patent.

Application filed February 6, 1917. Serial 146,875.
,. tioned box.
The same reference characters indicate the same parts in all the figures of the drawin s.
eferring to Figs. 1 to 3, the embodiment of myunvention there illustrated may be convenlentlv made out of a single sheet of material, cut and scored as shown in Fi 1, and folded as hereinafter described. lhe blank is formed with outer side walls 1, 2, 3 and 4, to the latter of'which is attached a pasting flap 5 by means of which the walls 4 and 1 are hinged together. Bottom flaps 6 and 7, hinged respectively to the shorter side walls 2 and 4, are folded inwardly toward each other, closure flaps 8 and 9, hinged respectively to the longer side walls 1 and 3, are folded together over the flaps 6 and 7 to form the bottom of the container. As shown, the flap 8, formed with the slits 10, is first folded, and the flap 9 then folded on to of the flap 8, the ears 11 at opposite ends of the flap 9 being arranged in the slits 10 to lock the parts together.
The central portion 12- of a section of the blank which by means of a spacing portion 13 is hinged to the side wall 1 is now bent into approximately semicircular form and arranged centrally within the container to form a curved spacing and supporting wall, said spacing curved spacing and supporting wall is provided with curved slits 16-16 which form seats for the glass bulbs of the lamps, and curved slits 1717 which form seats for the necks of such bulbs adjacent the bases, and also with small perforations or holes 24 portion 13 and a similar opposite spacing portion 14 hinged to such arrangedadjacent the slits 16 to receive the tips which project; centrally from the ends of the bulbs. ranged with their bases arranged in alternate order, and in the present instance the container is of such proportions as to hold five lamps.
The top' flaps 18 and 19, hinged respectively to the side walls 2 and 4:, are arranged to be folded over on top of the ledges formed by the sections 13 and 14, and the cover 20, hinged to the side wall 3, is arranged to be folded down on top of such flaps, a front flap 21 hinged to the top and formed with a locking tab 22 arranged to be inserted in a slit 23 in the side wall 1 being provided to constitute a top closure for the container.
Referring now to Figs. 4, 5 and 6, the box blank consists of a rectangular sheet scored crosswise to form'sections of which the section 27 constitutes the bottom of the box, 26 and 28 side walls, 25 a cover, 24 a cover flap, 30 a curved supporting spacing and supporting wall, corresponding to the portion 12 of the form of box first described and having similar slits and perforations, 31 and 29, spacing sections corresponding to the portions 14 and 13, respectively, of the form of box first described, and 32 a leg section which in the folded box is arranged in juxtaposition to the side wall. 26 and rests upon the bottom 27 of the container. The front wall 28 is formed with a slit adapted to receive and make interlocking connection with the locking tab 24 of the flap 2 1. While the box as shown and above described is not formed with ends, the curved spacing and supporting wall 30, braced by the cross rows of obliquely disposed lamps acting somewhat in the nature of a truss, renders a filled and closed box amply rigid for purposes of handling and storage, and
also for purposes of shipment when a suitable larger outer box is packed with the number of containers required to completely and exactly fill it.
I claim:

A cardboard container for electric lamps comprising a top and a bottom and opposite side walls, and a section having two opposite fiat spacing portions supported adjacent the plane of the top of the container and respectively extending to said side walls and having also an approximately semi-cylindrical spacing and supporting portion forming a closed curve and continu- As shown, the lamps are ar two opposite fiat spacing portions supported adjacent the plane of the top of thecontainer and respectively extending to said side walls and having also an approximately semi-cylindrical spacing and supporting portion forming a closed curve and continuous with said fiat portions, said semi-cylindrical portion being formed with opposite openings arranged to constitute alternately arranged seats for the bulb and neck portions respectively of the lamps and also formed with the perforations arranged to receive the central tips of the bulbs.
3.

5. A cardboard container for electric lamps comprising side walls hinged together, flaps hinged to the bottom edges of said side walls and constituting a bottom closure, a section scored and folded to form a flat spacing portion hinged to the top of one side wall and a substantially semi-- cylindrical portion hinged to said flat por tion and a second flat portion hinged to the opposite edge of said semi-cylindrical portion and a leg portion hinged to the opposite side of. said second flat portion and arranged adjacent a side wall of the container opposite said first-mentioned side wall with its free edge resting on said bottom closure, said semi-cylindrlcal portion being formed with opposite cuts and perforations arranged to engage lamps arranged transversely of its axis, and a top closure hinged to the top of another side wall.
6. A cardboard container for electric lamps comprising side walls, a bottom, and provision of means for supporting the oppoa section scored and folded to form a flat site ed e of said second flat portion, said spacing portion hinged to the top of one side semi-0y indrical portion being arranged to 10 wall and a substantially semi-cylindrical engage and support lamps arranged transportion hinged to said flat portion and a versely of its axis.
second flat portion hinged to the opposite A edge of said semi-cylindrical portion with HENRY V. EDINGTON.
